Making Light of It

Think of the extra benefit your property will receive when people recognize it by the visual effect it portrays at night.

Visit the Garden

The Oregon Garden in Silverton has some
excellent examples of our lighting installation work. Enjoy a concert or other evening function, and as the sun drops over the coastal range watch the illumination magic happen.

Sit back, relax and enjoy the Magic...

You and your family are relaxing in your
yard as evening approaches. Crickets begin their nightly concerto. Shadows shroud the lawn. The sky fades from deep blue to deeper indigo.

Soft, even pools of illumination on walkways, driveways and entrances permit safe passage. A favorite statue in the heart of your garden becomes the focus of attention, its marble surface softly translucent in the glow of invisible highlights.

Increased Security and Safety

The addition of landscape illumination does more than make your property attractive and visible, it provides an added bonus of increased security and safety; two important considerations.

Safe, economical, low voltage outdoor
lighting will do what landscaping does during the day—make it comfortable, attractive and enjoyable. Not only will you and your family stroll outdoors in safety, you'll rest more easily in the knowledge that your well-lit premises will deter intruders.

Bring the outside in

Soft lighting in the landscape lends a warmth to a landscape when viewed from inside. It draws your eye and expands your
living space to include the indoor and out. We have a portable demonstration kit of fixtures that let us test which fixtures give us the desired effect.

Lighting Effects (just a few)

Moonlighting
By placing a fixture in a tree and aiming it
downward, art imitates nature by creating the tranquil appearance of light filtering through the branches on a moonlit night.

Spotlighting
Engaging architecture and statuary in and
around your landscape can be spotlighted with a focused beam of light to set them off after dark. Grazing
This approach works beautifully with the
texture of stone or brick retaining
walls, privacy fences, building
facades, chimneys or anywhere else shadow and light may enhance the surface
quality of masonry materials.

Tree Lighting
Uplighting from the base
provides an excellent way to highlight the singular beauty of your more appealing trees.

Silhouetting
Trees and plants that have
unique branching structures create an engaging appearance when silhouetted against the façade of a building.

The Romantic Ambiance of the Nightscape...

Nothing compares to starlight and a full moon casting shadows on a beautifully landscaped area to create a romantic
setting.

However, the same area sometimes becomes hidden by the darkness of night because nature cannot always be counted on to cooperate in setting the scene for romance.

This is when nightlighting can transform the darkness into a beautiful outdoor setting that you can enjoy night after night.
